Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $4,472 to pay you $55,000. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $3.82 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
35.3%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 30.1% tax rate now rises to 35.3%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make $55,000 a year living in the region of Quebec, Canada, you will be taxed $16,551. That means that your net pay will be $38,449 per year, or $3,204 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.1% and your marginal tax rate is 44.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $44, hence, your net pay will only increase by $56.
